Walter Brice (11 May 1872-11 March 1900) was a military officer and noble that served in the Imperial Vionna-Frankenlischian Army. He became a scapegoat for the high casualties during the Battle of Châu Ðinh due to the incompetence of his scouts and several mistakes he made during the battle. He was the last Earl of Brice.

Military Career

Ai Chi War

Following the Second Battle of Chari, Lord Brice was gazetted as a Major General in the Imperial Expeditionary Force and joined the IEF with three battalions of Rifle Infantry, his own personal Noble Retainers and a group of mercenary light cavalrymen from Wolfswood. He was immediately given command of the IEF's Second Column as its previous commander, Sir Horace Lindegard, had taken command of the First Column and assumed command of the IEF as a whole whilst Lieutenant General William Sandoral was recovering from a shrapnel wound.

Battle of Châu Ðinh

During the Battle of Châu Ðinh, Brice commanded the Second Column of the IEF and made up the right flank of the Imperial force.
